I also would like to meet someone compatible for a serious future, am open to both disabled and able-bodied people, and have not found many matches through Dating4Disabled. You’re right, OkCupid has been slightly more active, but not nearly enough for me to meet the right person. I walk with a walker, have a BA and a constantly inquisitive mind, and look forward to a full life.

Maybe I didn’t give Dating4Disabled enough time. But I found in it a sharply limited pool of men within 50 miles of me, especially if I chose to date someone within ten years of my age.

Not to mention the inner tempest I feel when it is implied that we, the disabled, should give up on dating outside our own demographic. 

I understand that disability doesn’t apply to most of your readers, Evan. But I have had much better success on OkCupid than on Dating4Disabled (although “success” would be putting it a little strongly.)
